Any thoughts? I love Colbert, but he's always in character / in satire mode on his show. Not sure what he'll be like just being a normal host. Also I'm kind of disappointed since I love watching Stewart/Colbert but I never watch any of those late night talk shows.

I'm honestly kind of devastated by this news. Jon Stewart and Colbert are two of my favorite people in the world. Despite being comedy shows, they are just about as honest as a newscaster could possibly be (after translating the satire, of course) and I feel like they both do truly tremendous things for the world by their shows existing, and I feel like Colbert's talents are wasted leaving satirical journalism for a talk show.

I can only watch so much Craig, I go through phases where I watch him every night for a month, then not at all for a year. Fallon has never made me laugh in my life (and Leno only did a few times), so I could care less. Colbert will do a good job and be classy about it, and I hope he doesn't have a Paul Schafer equivalent busting in and making unfunny jokes all the time. That's what killed Letterman for me.
